"There does need to be a wow factor," Texas head coach Tom Herman said in February, referencing locker room renovations. "Our key constituents are 17-year-old kids too . . . They're priority 1A. Priority 1B is our current players. We want them to have first class facilities to train in and to learn in and to grow in."
